UNSPSC 41112516: Flow transmitters

UNSPSC 41112516 Flow transmitters is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement shows up primarily in laboratory consumables and instrument-parts bundles rather than flow transmitters as standalone devices. The code appears within broader consumables solicitations where it sits alongside columns, septa, detector components, ion source assemblies, and reagents used by public health and environmental laboratories for water quality analysis, drinking water compliance testing, and wastewater surveillance. Issuing bodies include state health departments (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment), state transportation agencies (Texas Department of Transportation), state environmental offices (Texas General Land Office), and municipal water utilities (City of Arlington, Texas). The code reflects laboratory instrument infrastructure procurement rather than industrial flow-measurement products.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas and Colorado. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission posted an IFB for standards, consumables, and instrument parts on September 24, 2026, due October 9, 2026, covering 19 line items valued between $50,000 and $75,000 in fiscal year 2026 with delivery to the Department of State Health Services laboratory in Austin. The City of Arlington, Texas solicited an annual requirements contract for laboratory supplies and chemicals on August 19, 2026, due September 17, 2026, for delivery to its laboratory services and water treatment operations. Colorado's Department of Public Health and Environment issued multiple sole-source procurements in May 2026 for laboratory reagents and equipment, including Qiagen wastewater surveillance testing reagents ($3.14 million), Standard BioTools X9 High-Throughput Genomics Systems ($2.3 million plus $1 million in reagents), Ceres Nanosciences reagents ($3.5 million), and Twist Bioscience synthetic viral controls ($2.3 million). A South Dakota laboratory consumables solicitation posted September 10, 2026, due September 25, 2026, lacks substantive scope detail. The code shows minimal recent competitive activity; most opportunities under 41112516 are sole-source or narrowly scoped instrument-specific procurements rather than open-market consumables buys.
